There is an evaporation from the body going on continually, day Rad night, through the pores and glands of the skin. This is nature’s way of maintaining the proper temperature of our systems and preserving the Rolt- ness and flexibility of the skin, and so long as the blood is free from impar ities no trouble will result. When, however, the blood from any caoM becomes infected with humors and acids, these too must be expelled, and coming in contact with the delicate*fibres and tissues with which the skin ii so abund.'witly supplied they produce irritation and inflammation, and the effect is shown by Eczema, Acne, Tetter, and skin affections of various kinds. These impurities and humors get into the blood through a deranged or inactive condition of the system ; the members whose duty it is to carry off the waste and refuse matter of the body fail to properly perform their work, and this impure, fermenting matter is left in the system to be absorbed by the blood. The skin is not only affected by poisous generated within (bo system, but poisons from without, such as Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, Nettle Rash, etc., enter through the open pores and glands, and so thor oughly do they become rooted in the blood that they are ever present, or return at certain seasons of each year to torment the sufferer. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., cannot cure skin diseases. True, such treatment re lieves some of the itching and dis comfort, and aids in keeping the skin clean, but it does not reach the real cause, and at best can be only palli ating and soothing. A thorough cleansing of the blood is the only certain cure for skin diseases. S. S. S., a gentle acting, safe blood purifier, made entirely of vegetable ingredients of the forest and field, is the proper treatment. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation, and neutralizes the acids and humors, thoroughly cleansing ■"'t purifying the blood, and curing skin affections of every kind. It supplies to the blood the fresh, nutritive qualities necessary to sustain the skin and all other parts of the body, and rids the blood of any and all poisons. S. S. S cures Eczema, Tetter, Acne, Salt Rheum, Poison Oak ami Ivy, Nettle Rash, and all ot ter skin troubles, and cures them permanently by removing every trace of the cause from the blood.
